Hey, by the way, if anyone deserves to have their name in quotes it's "Charlie". That's a great pisstake in itself. Anyone who's played against him knows what I mean. Hilarious
To Bandcamp and Ballkicker: My opinion still is that those red cards were harsh and this is pretty much the only forum where I can get that out. The ref acted like a deaf-mute when I brought my arguments to him at half-time and I'm sure the guys at the league office wouldn't listen to me either. My objections are this: Even though our players retaliated it was in the refs discretion to give yellows (remember Rooney on the weekend-the announcer even brought up Beckham's red card for a similar foul but said that he got a red because they are more strict in int'nl play), and they all received multiple game suspensions. I always thought that if you got a red card you sat out the next game. Multiple game suspensions were for serious stuff like fighting, intent to injure, etc.
I guess times have changed.
